Without a degree you are hosed.  Even a degree is no gaurantee.  Two
years ago I was interviewing in Austin for a position at 30K per year. 
I was with a degree and 1+ years experience.  My competition was people
with 10-15 years experience, who had been making 60-90K before their
companies laid off tens of thousands of people.  They were willing to
take that 30K job just to feed their families.  Thank God for the
education field or I'd be hosed also.  Get a degree.  What I said
earlier about ITT Tech being under investigation was national, not just
in Texas.  Be REAL careful in dealing with them and get what they say in
writing, or don't believe a word they say.  That goes for anyone trying
to recruit students and not just ITT.  Peace, Dennis
